Multiple Site Testing Evaluation
Forty persons with diabetes, in steady state for glucose,
performed self-capillary blood glucose assays using the
Ascensia™ C
fingerstick was performed with the Ascensia™ M
Adjustable Lancing Device. Samples from the palm, forearm,
thigh, and abdomen were then obtained, and those results
were compared to the Ascensia C
from the finger. One subject was unable to obtain a sample
from the abdomen. The blood glucose range from the
fingerstick measurements was 2.7 to 22.6 mmol/L, with an
average of 9.2 mmol/L. The hematocrit range was 36 to 52%,
with an average of 42%.
